    Every time I take it test or quiz feeling like I know this stuff I still end up getting parts of it wrong. This video is the most clear on TH-cam and uses the most realistic accounts/scenarios in terms of quiz/test material. Got my first 100% on a cash flow statement yesterday. Thank you for your help

We do not have stock but do have restricted gifts. Do changes to restricted cash go in the section on financing activities? Do i just record the increase or decrease in cash that is not unrestricted? Anything else nonprofits need to include in their statement of cash flows?

    Is there a mistaken number of the change of depreciation? It should be minus 8000 right

    • @accountinghelp
      @accountinghelp  5 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Not quite. Depreciation expense always gets *added*. This is because we are starting with net income, which has already deducted out the depreciation as an expense. However, this is a cash flow statement, and since depreciation expense is not cash related, we add it back. :)

    • @accountinghelp
      @accountinghelp  5 หลายเดือนก่อน +2

      I think that the easiest way to understand the why behind these adjustments is to analyze two accounts. The first one is accounts receivable. If accounts receivable went down from one year to another, that means that we received more cash than sales were added. Which is why when accounts receivable goes down, we would add to net income in our adjustment.
      For accounts payable, if accounts payable goes down, that means that we paid off more than what we added to it, which is why when accounts payable decreases it would be a negative adjustment. Current assets move in the opposite direction, while current liabilities move in the same direction.

    $ 25,000 gain on sale of the investment is already included in the Net income. So, we can just adjust for the sale of the investment for $ 70,000. Why do we have to deduct the $ 25000 from the operating section and then add back the whole amount of $ 95,000 in the investment section?

    • @accountinghelp
      @accountinghelp  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      It is the section of the cash flow statement that is important. The operating section is just supposed to show the cash flow from general operating activities. Gains and losses are not operating activities. Since the gain is already included in the net income, we deduct it back out to reconcile it back to operating. Then we show the cash inflow from the sale of the investments in the investing section so that we can accurately depict the investing cash flows.

    Would it be deducted instead added?

    • @accountinghelp
      @accountinghelp  2 ปีที่แล้ว

      Not quite. If accumulated depreciation is going down, that means that we sold equipment. Keep in mind that it isn't the accumulated depreciation that we are adding, it is actually the depreciating expense, which in this case is reflected in accumulated depreciation simply because we did not dispose or sell equipment. To determine the actual depreciation expense during the year if there is a disposal or sale of equipment, try plugging the following formula for depreciation expense: beginning accumulated depreciation balance + depreciation expense - accumulated depreciation removed for the year due to disposals or sales of equipment = ending accumulated depreciation balance.

      Paid-in capital in excess of par (Cr.--or occasionally debit)
      In this case, common stock increased by 25,000 yes, but as @Undervalued S said above, you *must* also look at paid-in capital. During the period, paid-in capital increased by $20,000. That means that the total cash we must have received for this issuance was $45,000. Here is the journal entry to show how it would look from the double-entry side of things:
      Cash Dr. 45,000
      Common stock Cr. 25,000
      Paid-in capital in excess of par Cr. 20,000
      Keep in mind that this is a statement of cash flows--we want to know how much we received in *cash* for issuing that stock and that will be the sum of the change in common stock and the change in PIC. :)

    Hi thank you for the video, just a quick question...for that dividends. If we're not paying anything in this year, it's shud be 500,000+700=50,700, then we paid 200 so that at the end of the year there's only 500 payable left. So shudn't it be 50700-200 instead of -500? I don't really understand why substracting 500 instead of 200? thanx...

    • @accountinghelp
      @accountinghelp  6 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Hello Iynur,
      If we did not pay any cash dividends for the current year, then the dividends paid would be 0. It may help to think of it this way. At the beginning of the year, we owed $700 in dividends. During the year, we declared an additional $50,000, which brings our dividends payable balance to $50,700. However, at the end of the year, we see that we only have a $500 balance in dividends payable. That means that we paid: $50,700 (previous balance) - $500 (final balance) = $50,200. Remember that the dividends payable balance *decreases* when we pay dividends and that dividends payable are essentially "dividends owed". Does this help? :)

When I was doing the whole thing i deducted Capex(in this case158,000+60,000-102,000+8,000=12,400)under cfi...there’s a difference of depreciation between Capex and pp&e so I’m really confused when I should deduct pp&e and when i should deduct Capex? Cuz once we deducted Capex, there seems no need to record pp&e under cfi as well? Thannnnnks!!!!

      When you issue common stock, you need to remember that the change in cash is equal to
      1. The change in the common stock account
      2. The change in the paid-in capital account
      25,000 + 20,000 = 45,000

    Thank you so much. What if there was disposal, how would the accumulated depreciation and depreciation expense be calculated?

    • @mzchriztinah
      @mzchriztinah 6 ปีที่แล้ว

      And also, would the disposal be added into operating activities or the difference in disposal and carrying value?

      Hello Adaeze, for disposals, we would have to take into account any changes in accumulated depreciation due to write offs of accumulated depreciation for disposal. For example, let's say that accumulated depreciation went up by $3,000 during the year. Let's also assume that we disposed a piece of equipment that had accumulated depreciation of $500. Then our depreciation expense for the year (and the amount going into our cash flow statement) would be 3000 + 500 = $3,500. This will take into account the depreciation expense for the equipment still remaining and also taking into account the depreciation related to the equipment disposal.

    Cell E9 (Change in Accumulated Depreciation) is wrong, should be (8000) instead of 8000

      Xinyi, accumulated depreciation is a contra asset account, so it *takes away* on the balance sheet. As you know, a negative number going further into a negative number might seem like it is a decrease, but think of it this way.... What would make accumulated depreciation go down? We would have to have sold some equipment. However, we know for a fact that they did not dispose of any equipment. Any change in accumulated depreciation therefore would be an increase for the recording of depreciation of equipment during the period.
      This is a very common error that I see with students, especially when they are trying to do things like analyze a change in contra accounts. Do not rely on simple math rules. Really THINK about what is happening in the big scheme of things. :) In this period, accumulated depreciation went *up*.

    Why dont we just look at the balance of each account for the current year and work with these values, instead of comparing it with the previous year.

    • @blueviolets2106
      @blueviolets2106 5 ปีที่แล้ว

      Because to determine the cash inflows and outflows you have start with the ending balance of the previous year to see the differences and transactions made in each account

      @@blueviolets2106 Thank you for your answer. I had this exercise at the university www.quora.com/Depreciation-and-Cash-flow and I still cannot understand how much I should add to the net income. I would be really grateful if you could help me solving this problem. I am only interested on the acc. depreciation and not the whole balance sheet. Please help me. Thank you in advance. I can also tell you how much we added in case you want to know in advance.
